Andre Cracks Aces After Dinner

Georgios Tavoularis

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

In the first hand after the dinner break, Brandon Sheils opened the action to 25,000 from under the gun and faced a three-bet to 75,000 from Gal Bar. Action folded to Alexis Andre in the big blind, who moved all in for 202,000. Sheils called, and Bar folded.

Alexis Andre: A?Q? All in
Brandon Sheils: A?A?

Andre found himself in a tough spot right after the break, but the 9?4?9? flop gave him plenty of outs. One of those outs appeared on the turn as the 6? completed his nut flush. The 10? on the river was no help to Sheils, and Andre doubled up to keep his tournament hopes alive.

Player	Chips	Progress
Brandon Sheils	740,000 -215,000	-215,000
Gal Bar	600,000 -95,000	-95,000
Alexis Andre	500,000 107,000	107,000

Matt Warburton

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

David Docherty open-raised to 20,000 from under the gun, Luka Sorainen called in middle position, and the big blind called.

The flop came 2?9?J? and action checked to Sorainen, who made it 25,000 to go. The big blind called before Docherty check-raised to 125,000. Only Sorainen made the call. Both remaining players then checked it back on the A? turn.

The river was the A? and Docherty used a time bank card before placing out a bet of 210,000. Sorainen then moved all in.

"Jesus!", said Docherty, who had around 130,000 left behind and was now in a tough spot. He used all of his time bank cards and was down to his last ten seconds before reluctantly mucking his hand.

"That's why I don't like time banks," said Docherty. "If I'd have taken seven minutes no one would have called time."

The table agreed, but ultimately Sorainen had won the pot and dragged in several hundred thousand chips to add to his stack, which was up to around 1.2 million.

Player	Chips	Progress
Luka Sorainen	1,200,000 748,000	748,000
David Docherty	130,000 -320,000	-320,000

Dealer "Does It" to Pistalo

Georgios Tavoularis

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Philip Joyce opened the action from middle position to 20,000. The action folded to Davor Pistalo, who put out a three-bet of 65,000 from the small blind. Everyone folded, leaving Joyce to act. After confirming the exact count of his opponent's stack and using one timebank chip, Joyce moved all in, and Pistalo snap-called.

Davor Pistalo: Q?Q? All in
Philip Joyce: A?5?

Pistalo was in excellent shape, with the 9?10?2? flop offering little danger. The 7? on the turn, however, gave Joyce a flush draw.

"Don't do it," Pistalo said to the dealer, but unfortunately for him, the river brought the 2?, completing Joyce's flush and sending Pistalo to the rail.

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With around 90,000 chips in the pot on a 9?10?8? flop, Dimitrios Gkatzas checked from the small blind and Arjel Daci followed suit from the big blind. Sylwia Studniarz then fired out 45,000, which Gkatzas called, and Daci folded.

An A? on the turn went check-check to the 8? river, where Gkatzas checked and Studniarz bet 75,000, then retreated into her shirt with just her eyes showing over the top. Gkatzas thought it over for some time, but eventually settled on a fold, much to the disappoint of Studniarz.

"Why?" she said as her opponent folded.

Player	Chips	Progress
Sylwia Studniarz	1,350,000 350,000	350,000

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Julian Salvesen raised to 20,000 from the hijack, Luke Porter three-bet to 70,000 from the big blind and Salvesen called.

The flop came 9?J?K? and Porter continued for 40,000, which Salvesen called. On the 3? turn, Porter bet out, this time for 80,000. Salvesen called again.

The river was the J? and Porter moved almost all in, betting 199,000 and leaving himself just 7,000 behind. Salvesen went deep into the tank and used several of his time bank cards before eventually making the call.

Porter flipped over K?K? for a full house, kings full of jacks. Salvesen couldn't beat it and mucked his hand, while Porter scooped in a huge double up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Luke Porter	800,000 -90,000	-90,000
Julian Salvesen	450,000 -123,000	-123,000

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

There were already around 250,000 chips in the pot on a board of 5?J?8?2? when Pedro Marques checked from the cutoff and Paul-Francois Tedeschi fired 118,000 on the button. After a while, Marques shoved his stack of 636,000 into the middle, which gave Tedeschi a decision for his remaining stack of around 300,000.

All of Tedeschi's timebanks went into the middle while he mulled it over, and after burning through three, he made the call.

Paul-Francois Tedeschi: J?10? All in
Pedro Marques: 8?8?

Tedeschi was already on his feet as he realized he was drawing dead, and there was no possible card in the deck that could save him. The 9? on the river was just a formality, and Marques was pushed the monster pot, which brought his stack up to around 1,300,000.

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With action already on the flop on a board of 6?2?J?, Alexander Sokolovsky checked and Espen Jorstad bet 21,000. Sokolovsky then raised it up to 75,000 and Jorstad called.

The turn was the 9? and Sokolovsky continued his aggression with a bet of 63,000. Jorstad called again to make for an inflated pot.

On the 4? river, Sokolovsky pushed all in with the bigger stack. Jorstad didn't take too long before he flicked in a chip to make the call. Jorstad had J?J? for a set of jacks, but Sokolovsky turned over A?7? for the nut flush to win a huge pot, sending Jorstad to the rail.

Rudolph Flops a Straight to Bust Nanos

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Daniel Erlandsson raised to 20,000 from middle position with Christian Rudolph calling on the button and Konstantinos Nanos defending out of the big blind.

The 9?7?10? flop got checked to Rudolph and he put out a bet of 25,000. Nanos check-raised to 68,000, which only Rudolph called.

Nanos bet 148,000 when the 3? dropped on the turn, and after a few moments, Rudolph shoved for Nanos' remaining 270,000. Nanos pondered briefly and then made the call.

Konstantinos Nanos: J?10? All in
Christian Rudolph: 8?6?

Rudolph was ahead with a flopped straight and could only lose if an eight was to fall on the river. However, the J? came on the river, and Nanos was out of the tournament.

Player	Chips	Progress
Christian Rudolph	1,250,000 522,000	522,000

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Nikita Kuznetsov opened the action to 20,000 from middle position, and on his direct left, Davidi Kitai moved all in for 141,000. Pascal Vos asked for the exact count, and after the dealer confirmed, he announced all in for approximately 350,000. Kuznetsov folded.

Davidi Kitai: J?J? All in
Pascal Vos: Q?Q?

Kitai needed to find a jack to stay alive, but the flop 7?7?9? offered no help. A player from another table asked for a jack, and their wish was granted as the dealer revealed the J? on the turn. The 7? on the river completed the board, securing Kitai a much-needed double-up.

Davidi Kitai	320,000 225,000	225,000

Sukhov Busts First Hand Back From Break

Kai Cocklin

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The restart to Level 19 was delayed slightly as a table had to be broken and the players heading to the stream tabled had to get mic'd up, however, on some tables, dealing had already started. The floor announced to stop dealing on all tables, but the hands that had already been dealt were not declared as misdeals.

Play then resumed with Yevhen Sukhov already all-in from the button for his stack of 217,000. Pawel Wojciechowski looked down at his cards from the big blind and liked what he saw, then called to put Sukhov at risk.

Yevhen Sukhov: 7?7? All in
Pawel Wojciechowski: A?J?

It was a flip that Sukhov needed to win, but he got off to a bad start on the J?A?5? flop as Wojciechowski hit top two pair. A 9? on the turn left Sukhov with just one more chance to survive, but he was already on his feet.

"You stood up already?!" asked Wojciechowski to Sukhov.

The stand-up equity didn't help Sukhov, though, as the 9? river meant he was eliminated in the first hand back from the break.
